Proraso Professional Shaving Brush - Natural Boar Bristles - Premium Wet Shave Brush

After several months of use, this brush has held up very well and has made shaving a much cleaner experience.

I’m old and old people are wise. As such, I use what works and has worked for 35 years. My first shaving brush was given to me by my father. He told me “A washrag with soaked in hot water to soften your beard, this brush lathered with shaving soap, use the brush to scruff your beard up, then the razor. Always did the job for me?” Sound advice from a wise man. This is a good brush and worth a few extra bucks. Proraso also makes good shaving soap.

Surprised that a product from Proraso would use boar, which is not for all facial hair types. I have very straight and stiff hair and so the boar was too much like my own hair. It didn’t do a good job lifting the hairs at all. I switched to a synthetic and immediately got better results. I am giving four stars because it’s still a quality product and I like the larger size and feel. Just know that it is boar so it won’t work for everyone.

Bought this to use with the Proraso soap and I wet the bristles and rub it around a few times in the soap and onto my wet face and it lathers nicely. So far the bristles are comfortable and staying in place.

Good product, but arrived in poor condition due to being thrown inside of a plastic wrapper for shipping. Brand new Italian shaving brush, scuffed and slightly frayed because of Amazon's shipping practices. Five stars for the product, -2 for how Amazon handles packages. I'm not ordering anything delicate from Amazon anymore.

I've been using this brush for a few weeks now. My normal brush is a standard badger hair. I stayed away from this one because - how good could it possibly be for $20 bucks? What made me go for it was a review that talked about how the bristles are nice and stiff, which might be good for mixing and exfoliating. I did not have an issue with the smell. I didn't have to soak it or wash it or anything prior to use and it didn't start to smell after I started using it. This being a Proraso brush, I did not have a lot of luck using with my Proraso shave cream and shave soap. Not sure what I was doing wrong, but just didn't lather up well enough for me. However, I do think this brush would work quite well with a hard shave puck, which I have seen online. Like everything else in DE shaving, you have to try it out for yourself and see what works for you. Great value for the price. Treat it like any other shave brush - store it upside down in an open area to air-out.

About a year ago I started shaving with a quality double edge razor, but I resisted the idea of using shave soap and brush. Instead I kept on using the same types of shaving cream I had used before, but I wasn't getting the best result with them. Recently I decided maybe I should try Proraso shave soap and that seemed very promising, so I went ahead and bought this brush to use with it. Wow! I had tried a lot of shaving products over the 40ish years I have been shaving, and this is the best by far! At first it seemed a bit stiff, but it quickly softens and feels very nice. There were some lost bristles at first, but that seems to have stopped. Overall, I'm very pleased and would urge anyone looking for a better shave to give this a try!

Stiffer than a badger hair brush. Works well with a solid shave soap. Has a nice look to it.

Proraso ist ein hervorragender Hersteller. Gute Preise bei toller Qualität. Der Pinsel ist auch schick.
